Question: Would you care to comment on another conversation!?


Living Room CSI
by C!.S!. Scotkin

I came home early from work,
looking forward to lunch,
finish my day’s charting,
while I had a munch!.

As I stood in my warm kitchen
I overheard them clear!.
I walked into the living room
Found just what I feared!

George and Gracie, nose to nose,
in the middle of the floor!.
ponder the fate of the Gecko King,
Bubba, whom I adore!


Georgie: Well, Gracie, dear! We did it!
I feel we did it right!

Gracie: What do you mean “we” did it!?!
Do you want a bite!?

Georgie: Not right now,
I’m not in the mood!
Besides, it’s still breathing,
don’t play with your food!

Gracie: Georgie, I’m holding on to the tail
Why don’t you grab his head!?

Bubba: Back off! You freaking mammals!
I’ll bite your lip instead!


Mom: Gracie, drop that Gecko! Before I grab the broom!


Epilogue: As I threatened , as I railed
Grace bit down, Bubba flailed!
life intact, but quite de-tailed!

This is darling! Poor little Gecko!. Do the tails grow back!?
So, did George and Gracie get the striped muffler back!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

The poets have quite a menagerie: cats, squirrels, bunnies, dogs, wolves, a rooster and heaven knows what else!. But these two take the cake--or the gecko!Www@QuestionHome@Com

There's lots of good sci-fi about gene splicing human and gecko DNA!. I don't know about cats and humans, except maybe the cats would like to see more tuna in everything!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

OH! I laughed out loud upon reading this! We live in the mountains and my two are forever bringing in lizards and mice and such!. You tell an amusing "tail"!. Good job!Www@QuestionHome@Com

and i liked the good ending,
only de-tailed!. haha!

i love this poem!! i hope its going in the baby's book!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Don't you hate it when they do that!? My cat, Rimmer - (how he got that name is a long story I won't bore you with), would get some poor little mouse!.!.!.and tease it!. Let it go and pounce on it, and maul it about a bit, and let it go!.!.!.etc!. If I tried to rescue the mouse, he would pick it up and run off with it!. I know it's natural!.!.!.but, I still hated it!.

I'm glad Bubba Gecko got away to fight another day!.
What does CSI mean!?
A very amusing poem, and it takes a while before you realise that it does all rhyme!. Well done!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
